Twinkies

Why go to the state fair when the state fair can go to you?

Gone are the days you have to wait for the Erie County Fair to get your fill of deep-fried Twinkies. Something THAT unhealthy needs to be available to the general public 365 days a week, no? (Note the dripping sarcasm.) But if this is your thing, this may be the best day ever...

People are going absolutely mad over the idea that they will no longer have Twinkies in their life.  Maybe the thought of it is odd and hard to imagine a world without Twinkies, but I never really ate them anyway, so no big deal.

As you probably heard by now, the Hostess Company is going out of business.

Hostess, which makes such iconic foods as Wonder Bread and Twinkies, has filed for bankruptcy. The company is some $860 million in debt, so clearly some restructuring is in order. What happens now, you ask? Here are some possible scenarios of what may take place:
